The Pleasant Hill Drive-In closed for the final time on January 1, 1984 with a triple-feature. The final films played there were “Staying Alive”, “Flashdance”, and “Classroom Teasers” as its last attraction.

I have, in my notes, a date of 1985 for the closing of Pleasant Hill Drive In. I didn’t note where I got that date. Can anyone confirm?
